| Re:How light box works? The light box is quite effective in treatment of SAD and other seasonal disorders. The light box provides a calculated amount of balanced light equivalent to light receive by sun in a clear spring day. The light ray helps in regulating the body clock. Light entering our eyes send impulses to pineal gland situated in brain.This gland then secretes a chemical called serotonin and reduces the production of a chemical called melatonin. Melatonin is hormone which helps us to sleep on the other hand serotonin regulates our mood and energy. Thus light coming from light box rejuvenate our mind and cure SAD and other disorders. |
